Race Baiting

Some seem to misunderstanding what race baiting is. I will give you a very clear example from a Tea Party fool who was elected Mayor of Maine. Perhaps the citizens of Maine will soon deny they ever voted for him, as many of those in Minnesota now say about Jesse:

We can add to this Malibu Bard's debunked meme about Muslim's being responsible for all the rapes in Sweden, and all those who post and repost this nonsense without checking the facts.

The term, in American parlance, for someone who points out race baiting, is playing the race card. Hope that helps all those interested in careful and accurate use of language.

Despite his success at penning some of the most offensive dog whistle claims on the forum, NW needs some help with definitions. Since he seems to have paid no attention in school, a little remedial help is offered here:

You can talk about Muslims all you want, but the fact remains that you've been labeling just about everyone here, to the right of you, a racist ever since BHO first started running for president, myself at least a dozen times. Which is why I take this personally.
You've have this habit of throwing down the race card at anybody's complaint about BHO, and it doesn't matter what the complaint was about.
So for you mac to go on with this new thread of yours, all about race baiting, I find completely hypocritical.

Just calling it like I've seen it for at least the last 8 years.

Pay attention NW. I object to bigoted comments. I note, with deep sadness, that nobody from the right objects to the deeply bigoted comments made by their comrades, no matter how vile. Not once.

Did you look at the video? Are you proud of this Tea Party politician? I am ashamed of him.

The reasoned debate of Mike Fick?

Yet another thread deliberately designed to inflame and precipitate a shouting match. Ignore him.

I Googled the definition of race baiter. The first page of hits was remarkably consistent, leaving no doubt about the definition's broad acceptance and unambiguous clarity. To save a thousand words, five different dictionaries simply posted this picture:

Leaving no stone unturned, the photo caption laid it out for all to see:

Ah, dog whistle Fick, you peeked. But you still got it wrong.
